< Exodus 28 >

1 And bring thou near unto thee Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, that they may minister unto Me in the priest's office, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's sons.
Namah loh Israel ca rhoek khui lamkah na maya Aaron neh a taengkah anih ca rhoek te namah taengah khueh laeh. Aaron amah neh Aaron ca rhoek Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar neh Ithamar tah kamah taengah khosoih saeh.
2 And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, for splendour and for beauty.
Na maya Aaron ham himbai cim te thangpomnah neh boeimangnah la khueh pah.
3 And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise-hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they make Aaron's garments to sanctify him, that he may minister unto Me in the priest's office.
Namah loh cueihnah mueihla ka cung sak tih lungbuei kah aka cueih boeih te thui pah. Te vaengah kai taengkah khosoih la aka ciim uh Aaron kah himbai te hui uh saeh.
4 And these are the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a tunic of chequer work, a mitre, and a girdle; and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto Me in the priest's office.

5 And they shall take the gold, and the blue, and the purple, and the scarlet, and the fine linen.
Amih loh sui neh a thim neh, daidi neh hlampai a lingdik neh hnitang khaw doe uh saeh.
6 And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the skilful workman.
Hnisui te sui, a thim neh daidi, hlampai a lingdik neh kutci la a moeh tih a tah hnitang neh saii uh saeh.
7 It shall have two shoulder-pieces joined to the two ends thereof, that it may be joined together.
Te dongkah a hmoi rhoi ah aka om te holhnam rhoi ah hlin saeh lamtah phaai uh saeh.
8 And the skilfully woven band, which is upon it, wherewith to gird it on, shall be like the work thereof and of the same piece: of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel:
Te phoeiah oitha lung panit te lo lamtah a soah Israel ca ming tarhit pah.
10 six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the six that remain on the other stone, according to their birth.
A ming parhuk te lungto pakhat dongah ming parhuk vetih aka coih te lungto pabae dongah amamih kah rhuirhong bangla tarhit pah.
11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones, according to the names of the children of Israel; thou shalt make them to be inclosed in settings of gold.
Kutthai kutnaep, thingthuk lung kah kutbuen bangla lungto rhoi te tarhit. Te te Israel ca ming neh vael lamtah sui oibom dongah hol.
12 And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, to be stones of memorial for the children of Israel; and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial.
Lungto rhoi te hnisui dongkah holhnam dongla Israel ca rhoek kah poekkoepnah lungto la hulh pah. Te vaengah Aaron loh amih ming te BOEIPA mikhmuh kah poekkoepnah la a laengpang rhoi ah vah saeh.
13 And thou shalt make settings of gold;
Te phoeiah sui oibom saii.
14 and two chains of pure gold; of plaited thread shalt thou make them, of wreathen work; and thou shalt put the wreathen chains on the settings.
Sui cilh neh cangtui-rhaica te rhuinit hulh lamtah te te kutci neh rhuivaeh la khueh. Te phoeiah rhuivaeh cangtui-rhaica te oibom dongah khit.
15 And thou shalt make a breastplate of judgment, the work of the skilful workman; like the work of the ephod thou shalt make it: of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.
Hnisui dongkah kutngo bangla laitloeknah rhangpho na saii khaw bibi la moeh. Te te sui neh hlampai thim, daidi, a lingdik neh saii. Te phoeiah hnitang a tah neh te te saii thil.
16 Four-square it shall be and double: a span shall be the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof.
Te te yaep lamtah a yun khap at neh a daang khap at ah hniboeng la om saeh.
17 And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, four rows of stones: a row of carnelian, topaz, and smaragd shall be the first row;
Te soah lungto hulhnah te a than pali la dueh. Than cuek te lungling, vaya neh tamkuei he lungto than at vetih,
18 and the second row a carbuncle, a sapphire, and an emerald;
A than bae dongah khocillung, minhum neh lungmik.
19 and the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;
A than thum dongah oithii, khopang lung neh kemden,
20 and the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper; they shall be inclosed in gold in their settings.
A than li dongah timsuih, oitha neh maihae te sui cueh thil lamtah a hulhnah neh om saeh.
21 And the stones shall be according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names; like the engravings of a signet, every one according to his name, they shall be for the twelve tribes.
Lungto rhoek khaw Israel ca hlai nit ming la sum uh saeh. Kutbuen thingthuk dongkah a ming bangla hlang boeih he koca hlai nit dongah amah ming neh om uh saeh.
22 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate plaited chains of wreathen work of pure gold.
Rhangpho soah cangtui-rhaica cuehnah te sui cilh rhuivaeh neh kutnaep la saii.
23 And thou shalt make upon the breastplate two rings of gold, and shalt put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
Rhangpho dongkah sui kutcaeng panit saii lamtah rhangpho kah a hmoi rhoi ah kutcaeng te panit la buen.
24 And thou shalt put the two wreathen chains of gold on the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.
Sui rhuivaeh rhoi te rhangpho hmoi kah kutcaeng rhoi dongla khih pah.
25 And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt put on the two settings, and put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, in the forepart thereof.
Te phoeiah rhuivaeh rhoi kah a hmoi rhoi te oibom rhoi dongla hlin lamtah a maelhmai hmai kah a hnisui dongah holhnam dongla khih pah.
26 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and thou shalt put them upon the two ends of the breastplate, upon the edge thereof, which is toward the side of the ephod inward.
Te phoeiah sui kutcaeng panit saii lamtah, te te rhangpho kah a hmoi rhoi la khit. A hmuidong te hnisui saa dongah a khui la det.
27 And thou shalt make two rings of gold, and shalt put them on the two shoulder-pieces of the ephod underneath, in the forepart thereof, close by the coupling thereof, above the skilfully woven band of the ephod.
Te phoeiah sui kutcaeng panit saii lamtah te te a hmai kah a dang, hnisui cihin sokah a rhui voeivang ah hnisui dongkah holhnam rhoi dongla khih pah.
28 And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a thread of blue, that it may be upon the skilfully woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod.
Rhangpho kah a kutcaeng lamloh hnisui kah kutcaeng duela a kutcaeng te pin saeh lamtah hnisui kah cihin duela hamnak thim neh om saeh. Te daengah ni hnisui dong lamkah rhangpho te khaw a hawl pawt eh.
29 And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.
Te dongah Aaron loh Israel ca ming te a lungbuei dongkah laitloeknah rhangpho dongah vah saeh lamtah hmuencim la a kun vaengah, BOEIPA mikhmuh kah poekkoepnah la om yoeyah saeh.
30 And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goeth in before the LORD; and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually.
Laitloeknah rhangpho khuiah Urim neh Thummim khueh pah lamtah BOEIPA mikhmuh la a kun vaengah Aaron kah lungbuei ah om saeh. Te vaengah Aaron loh Israel ca kah laitloeknah te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a lungbuei la phuei yoeyah saeh.
31 And thou shalt make the robe of the ephod all of blue.
Hnisui hnikul te a thim la boeih saii.
32 And it shall have a hole for the head in the midst thereof; it shall have a binding of woven work round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of a coat of mail that it be not rent.
A hmoi a laklung ah a lu ham a rhai om saeh. A rhai kaepvai te rhawnmoep rhai a om bangla kutnaep la a yen neh om saeh. Te daengah ni a pawn pawt eh.
33 And upon the skirts of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the skirts thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:
A hnihmoi ah tale a thim, daidi neh hlampai a lingdik neh saii. A hmoi kaepvai te a laklo ah sui hling neh pin thalh saeh.
34 a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the skirts of the robe round about.
Hnikul kah hnihmoi dongah sui hling neh tale thaih, sui hling neh tale thaih pin bang pah.
35 And it shall be upon Aaron to minister; and the sound thereof shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die not.
Aaron soah thohtat ham om tih BOEIPA mikhmuh kah hmuencim la a kun vaengah a ol pa saeh. Te daengah ni a vuenva vaengah a duek pawt eh.
36 And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and engrave upon it, like the engravings of a signet: HOLY TO THE LORD.
Te phoeiah sui cilh tamlaep te saii lamtah a sokah kutbuen thingthuk te, “BOEIPA ham Cim,” tila thuk pah.
37 And thou shalt put it on a thread of blue, and it shall be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.
Te te hamrhui thim dongah khih pah lamtah lupong dongah om saeh. Lupong hmai ah om saeh.
38 And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, and Aaron shall bear the iniquity committed in the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow, even in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD.
Te vaengah Aaron tal ah om saeh lamtah, cimcaihnah dongah a ciim Israel ca rhoek kah thaesainah te amih kah cimcaihnah kutdoe la Aaron loh boeih phuei saeh. Te daengah ni amih ham khaw a tal dongah BOEIPA mikhmuh kah kolonah la phat a om eh.
39 And thou shalt weave the tunic in chequer work of fine linen, and thou shalt make a mitre of fine linen, and thou shalt make a girdle, the work of the weaver in colours.
Hnitang angkidung te cueh lamtah hnitang lupong khaw saii. Te phoeiah lamko saii lamtah kutnaep la en.
40 And for Aaron's sons thou shalt make tunics, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and head-tires shalt thou make for them, for splendour and for beauty.
Aaron koca rhoek ham khaw angkidung khueh pah lamtah amih ham lamko saii pah. Samkhuem khaw amih thangpomnah ham neh boeimangnah ham saii pah.
41 And thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, and upon his sons with him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them, that they may minister unto Me in the priest's office.
Te te na maya Aaron neh a taengkah anih koca rhoek te bai sak lamtah amih te koelh. Amih kut te cung sak lamtah amih te ciim. Te phoeiah kai taengla khosoih uh saeh.
42 And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover the flesh of their nakedness; from the loins even unto the thighs they shall reach.
Amih ham a yah saa aka dah la takhlawk hnii saii pah lamtah a cinghen lamloh a phai duela dah saeh.
43 And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they go in unto the tent of meeting, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die; it shall be a statute for ever unto him and unto his seed after him.
Aaron neh anih koca loh tingtunnah dap khuila a kun uh vaengah khaw, hmuencim ah thohtat ham hmueihtuk la a mop uh vaengah puei uh saeh. Te daengah ni thaesainah a phueih vaengah a duek uh pawt eh. He he anih ham neh anih phoeikah a tiingan ham kumhal kah khosing coeng ni.
